Falls hinter Paywall für einige:

Zitat:

I don’t want to become—it’s a good example—like AP [Audemars Piguet] with the Royal Oak. Very nice watch, but the problem? They only have the one. If the trade says, we have enough of them, everybody wears it. Attractivité will go down; AP is dead.



Zu „the next big thing“:

And the next one should come quite soon. I’m preparing it. Design is done, prototype is ready. And, really, I like it. Not a lot of people have seen it, maybe 500 people internally at Patek. And we now have to be ready in terms of production. I cannot tell you exactly when, because we’re just now discussing that. Something quite huge for collectors, really those passionate about the brand, will come this year.
